Editorial note

The Philips MiniVac FC6140 is a compact and lightweight vacuum cleaner, weighing only 1300 g, making it an ideal choice for those seeking easy handling and convenient storage. Its bagless design allows for efficient particle collection, ensuring a clean and hygienic working environment. Additionally, the nickel-metal hybrid (NiMH) battery technology provides reliable and durable performance, perfect for everyday use. However, this device has some drawbacks. Its dust capacity of 0.5 L, while sufficient for occasional use, may require frequent emptying during extended cleaning sessions. Furthermore, the charging time of 18 hours is relatively long, which limits its quick use after a discharge. The runtime of only 9 minutes may also be insufficient for cleaning large areas without interruption. In terms of performance, the Philips MiniVac FC6140 offers a satisfactory suction power of 2.7 kPa, but the limited usage time may frustrate some users. The noise level of 75 dB, while tolerable, can be perceived as disturbing in quiet environments. Overall, the MiniVac FC6140 offers good value for money with interesting features, although the lack of a vacuum tube set may restrict its versatility. The user experience is generally positive thanks to its ergonomic design and pleasant grip, but improvements in battery life and dust capacity would be desirable for optimal use.
